WESTERN OREGON EDUCATOR DEVOTES LIFE TO HER WORK Mary Arisstiene Ewing Rises by Sheer Will to Learn to Eminent Position as Progressive School Teacher. L' Commerce Safe Deposit Vaults. 91 Third St. Private boxes. Adv. BT O. H. BARN HILL. ET us look at some moving pic tures which have been photo graphed, not upon the cinema film but upon the tablets of memory. some of them long before there were such things as movie theaters. The opening scene is of a bleak, wind swept prairie of western Iowa. The air is bitter cold and filled with fine, sharp snow, which the winter wind drives with cutting force in the face of a little girl of 11 years, thinly clad In an old calico dress and carrying in one hand a bag of books and in the other a diminstive dinner pall. She bears the Imposing name Mary Arisstiene Ewing. but everybody calls her "Xo. 2," because the design on her dress resembles that numeral. The Christmas season is drawing near and the lonely little soul - is counting the days which intervene, for during the holidays she will re ceive her year's supply of clothing from the woman for whom she is working. She hopes her next dress will be of such a pattern as to af ford no one an excuse for calling her anything but her rightful name of Mary. ; Three long miles, night and morn ing, in all kinds of weather, is quite a walk for a little girl, especially when the roads are miry with mud, as they often are, or ankle-deep with snow, as they are r.ow. Such things as consolidated high schools, with free transportation of pupils, has not yet been even thought of. Yes, Mary is already attending high school, working nights and mornings to earn her living. The first thing she does upon reach ing home is to milk several cows, which Is also her first duty in the morning. She lives on a big farm, where there are as many as five men employed during the busy season. This makes lots of housework. After numerous supper dishes are washed Mary 'gets out her school books, but before studying she helps with his lessons a slow-witted boy of about her own age. Helping boys is the work in which she afterwards finds the greatest pleasure and profit, but at this particular period, when all her time and strength are sorely needed for her own studies, the task seems anything but attractive. In spite of the handicap of poverty and much outside work Mary finishes high school in three years, graduat ing with good grades. Next we see the family moving to southern Kan sas. In place of the old-time prairie schooners there are two canvas covered "mLVer wagons," the father driving one and Mary the other. Upon arriving at their new home the need for teachers, is found to be as urgent as it Is now. Although considerably under the age limit, Mary takes the teachers' examination, receiving an average grade of 98 per cent. Forty miles from Wichita, which could then be reached only by a long, hard day's ride in the saddle or be hind a pair of ponies, we see a little sod school house with a real dirt floor and a "cow-chip" fire. Behind the teacher's desk sits a little 'girl in short skirts, her hair tied with big bow of ribbon. This is Mary. who is now but 15 years old, success fully ruling over a score of pupils whose ages range from 6 to 21 years. Passing over eight years of school teaching in Kansas, eight in Okla homa and one in Washington, we next see Mary who is now known as Miss Ewing presiding over the destinies of a rural school in western Oregon. Miss Ewing prefers rural work. because she loves country folk and country life. Just now she is getting her pupils interested in learning to do the daily tasks which will likely be theirs in after life gardening, carpenter work, caking, dressmaking and other useful arts. The idea of adding practical knowledge learning how to -o by doing to the study of tr i a a i I J f ' : I k I t I Miss Mary A. KnlnK, who fcaa had remarkable eareer as rural teacher. printed theories is a new and novel one. It is presented in such an at tractive manner, however. that it appeals strongly, to the pupils, whose parents are deeply impressed with the splendid results attained. At the close of the term a bazaar called "Trades of Many Nations" is held and the products of the pupils' skill displayed and offered for sale. Among other things, the boys sell a lot of wooden utensils which they have whittled out with their jack knives, including several pairs of Indian clubs. ' In a rural practice school where teachers in training from the state normal at Monmouth come to observe the pedagogic art, we see Miss Ewing serving to her pupils the first hot lunches which the school children have enjoyed. She organizes a com munity improvement club for parents and pupils. A Babcock milk tester is introduced and patrons become so Interested in high-class dairy stock that one of them buys a purebred Jersey heifer, which becomes the foundation of the champion herd of Jerseys shown at the state fair in 1919. While teaching others Miss Ewlnj does not neglect her own education, which she considers only begun at the time of her graduation from high school. She studies kindergarten work in the Emporia (Kan.) normal; teaching methods in the Alva (Okla.) normal and the Oregon State normal at Monmouth, graduating from the last named institution. A commercial course is taken in the western Kansas business college and a six months' summer school attended at the Oregon Agricultural college at Corvallis. where she completes a course in home economics by attending regular classes the first seven months of last year. Although 53 years of are. Miss Ewing is the picture of health and strength, overflowing with vitality, with a mind alert, quick to receive an idea or grasp a situation, with un bounded enthusiasm for her work and ardent aspirations to accomplish greater and bettor things for the boys and girls entrusted to her care. Miss Ewing sees nothing wonderful in her work. "I couldn't help being a teacher." she explains. "My Scotch and Welch ancestors for 300 years back were teachers, preachers and musicians. One of my cousin. has taught mathematics for 40 yearf in the same high school at Wabash. Ind. When I was a very little girl he laid his hand upon my head and remarked to my mother: 'This child will become a teacher.' It has been a joy and a privilege to fulfill his prophecy."
